Pete 'Dumb McNamara' Hegseth Still Crying Over Iran War Press Coverage
During another cabinet meeting mostly used to glorify Trump, a hyped up Pete Hegseth, who is being dubbed "Dumb McNamara" by Pentagon staff, ranted that the assault on Iran is one for the history books and then bashed Democrats and the media for not acting like propaganda tools for the Trump administration.
Much of Hegseth's role is not to be the Secretary of Defense, but the Secretary of Jingoism and braggadocio. The Daily Beast is reporting his Pentagon staffers have a new nickname for the bloviating Hegseth. "Dumb McNamara."
HEGSETH: This is stuff for the history books.
This is stuff for legacy. Mr. President, you are acting now to ensure future generations do not have to live under the threat of a nuclear-armed Iran.
However, you wouldn't know it if you listened to the dishonest hate Trump media as you referenced. The folks here in the room, these cameras, they have a choice. You're either informing the American people of the truth, or you're not.
Boring!
The more "Dumb McNamara" opens his yap and attacks the media, the farther down Trump's poll numbers drop on the Iran war. 61% oppose his handling of Iran.
